Dynamics of psychophysiological functions of young representatives of precision-target sports at different stages of the training process

Abstract

The purpose of the work is to provide a description of the structure of the psychophysiological functions of young hockey players and a comparative characterization of the development of neurodynamic indicators in hockey players and representatives of cyclical sports. Material and methods. Psychophysiological testing was carried out using the computer program "Psychodiagnostics", as well as the program developed under the leadership of V.S. Ashanina The research was conducted twice: at the end of the pre-competitive period and at the end of the competitive period. The results. changes in the structure of the relationship of psychophysiological indicators among themselves according to the data of correlation and factor analysis were found. Both in the first and in the second testing, the investigated indicators comprised 4 factors. But the indicators included in each factor and the percentage values ​​of each factor were slightly different for the first and second testing. In the second testing, i.e. at the end of the competitive period, indicators of simple reactions to sound came to the fore in the structure of the relationship of psychophysiological indicators, while in the pre-competitive period simple reactions to light came to the fore. Conclusions. The role of complex reactions in the structure of the relationship of psychological indicators increases during the transition from the pre-competition to the end of the competition period. This indicates an increase in the role of mental processes with an increase in the skill of the players.
